 |  Astral Projection: Reality, imagination, or what!?
Hi, Recently I've become interested in concept of Astral Travel. I haven't acheived the levels of meditation necessary yet to be able to feasibly have such an experience, but i was wondering what the experience is like for people who claim to have done this? Certain questions like do you really see yourself leave your body? Is everything in the experience THAT REAL, or is it more of a deep visualisation induced in profound states of realisation? Is there a difference!!?? An interesting reason for asking this is that recently my mother (who was diagnosed with Schizophrenia a few years ago) iniated a conversation with me out of the blue about occasionally "flying", and "leaving her body". She claimed basically to on a few occasions gone flying through the clouds etc as a spirit. Having heard of Astral Projection I was intrigued... |

As others may mention, I've written about several of my astral experiences in my blog. But to answer your questions briefly... I sort of stretch out of my body and then when I look back I can see the shell/body lying on my bed. yes it really feels THAT REAL. It feels more real than when you're encased in the body. Your consciousness is free. It's an amazing and unique feeling that I wish everyone could feel at least once. We've had some discussions in this forum about how to achieve astral states. Read through the old threads and see if they help. Learning lucid dreaming is a good first step.
